PREMIUM TO BE ADDED TO PRICE OF WHEAT.

• New York, June 13.—T0 preserve a natural flow of wheat from the farm, periodical premiums covering storage charges will be added ! to the basic price at various guarantee markets, according to an announcement here tonight by Julius H. Barnes, United States wheat director. . These premiums will not be introduced during July, when the basic prices prevailing for the last year will remain in effect. For each succeeding month,' however, premiums will be announced thirty days in advance. ; _ .To Cut Rate»,_—— •Mr. Barnes announced railroad rates from inter-mountain and Pacific coast territory to Galveston and New York soon will be reduced to 56 cents per hundred, the equivalent of 33.6 cents 'per bushel. --This reduction, Mr. Barnes explained, is intended as a reliSTto the producers in those sections as the grain corporation cannot pursue its practice of making effective a $2 blanket minimum price for .all wheat at intermountain points, but will be obliged to confine itself to paying $2 at Pocatello, Great Falls and Salt Lake City, leaving the rest of the western territory to base on the commercial market most. readily reached by it. To assure a larger flow of wheat to the gulf ports, Mr. Barnes said he had decided to seek an executive order increasing the number one base price at Galveston and New Orleans from $2.28 to $2.30 per bushel. He added that he expected this change ! would become effective July 1.

Chairman Fate, of the Chamber of Commerce road committee, is pretty well pleased with the prospects of’ securing favorable action from the state highway commission on the proposed “J. H.” route between Indianapolis and Chicago. He says that there is yet much to be done before the route is fully established. It has been found by the committee thatj a great number who are enthusi-'; astically in favor of the road, are taking it for granted that this route ' will be the one chosen, and are making little or no effort to clinch the matter. There is a possibility that. the commission will decide to lay a highway straight north from Indianapolis to the Lincoln highway, and then connect each county seat and each city of 5,000 by short spurs from this main line. If this is done, it will probably be years before—a through route from Crown Point to Rensselaer and then on to Indianapolis is constructed. An effort is being made by the Chamber of Commerce to raise a permanent road fund, which will be used not only in def raying the expenses of the committee in securing this route, but as B fund to draw upon if necessary in other road matters. The highway proposition is one of the biggest problems that Lake county citizens have to contend with and the Chamber of Commerce is rendering valuable service to the entire community by its prompt and effective action.—Crown Point Register. - ■ Lewis Quinn, of Gary, is spending the week-end with his parents.

TARIFFS A LEGISLATIVE PROBLEM.

Washington, June 14.—The Republican Publicity association, today gave out the following statement from its Washington headquarters, through its president, Jion. Jonathan Bourne, Jr,t —— “A member of the U. S. tariff commission advocates a law which will ‘authorize the president to levy by proclamation additional duties on goods which are being systematically dumped into the United States, or to prohibit their importation in case he has reason to believe that the result will be to injure, destroy or prevent the establishment of an American industry.’ ; “There- you have one more illustration of the grasping ambition of bureaucracy. More power, is the limitless desire ; ‘Leave it to me,’ is bu-. reaucracy’s motto. Personal government, is the ideal. Government by law is not even a last resort. “Just think of the possibilities of a broad creation of discretion such as that proposed! Certain commodities are shipped in large quantities into this country. Persons interested as manufacturers of the same commodities ask for a proclamation against the importations. The importers oppose the issuance of a ban; Speculators lay in a supply of the goods imported at low prices and suddenly* the country is taken by surprise by the issuance of a prohibition order that shuts out further importations, increases the value of goods already brought in, makes fortunes for those who bought up the supply, and starts rumors as to some one having an advance tip as to the best time to buy, in what quantities, what commodities, and at what prices. “People who remember the rumors of fortunes made in the stock market a few years back by men who got an early tip on a presidential 1 note, will see the danger of repetition of incidents that tend to shake confidence in government. Creating opportunities for that sort of thing is hardly the part of wisdom. “The proper policy for America is to regard importations of articles that can be produced here as ‘unfair’ to American producers. We should prevent such unfair competition by imposing an import duty at least equal to the difference in the.cost of production here and in the country of lowest cost of production, provided the latter country sells to us a quantity sufficient to be a menace to our home industry. But the rate of duty, the time and manner of its establishment, should be fixed by law, so that every person interested may have equal knowledge of the proposed action and the time when it is to become effective. The rights of importers and producers should be fixed by law and not be subject to the varying discretion of a president, especially one who believes in the ‘removal of all economic barriers.’ ? “This discussion has dealt with the subject wholly from the standpoint of governmental policy. As a matter of constitutional law, it is doubtful whether any pretext could be devised that would sustain even technically a delegation of power to the president to fix import duties.”
